Abstract
An automated data reporting system collects, stores, analyzes, and reports health related data. The system includes a processor, a memory device coupled to the processor, a communication device coupled to the processor and the memory device, that enables communication via the communication network, a relational database that is stored and updated in the memory device, and an application program that is executed by the processor from the memory device. The application program includes first code, responsive to a query from a provider device via the communication device that instructs the communication device to send a data entry form to the provider device, second code, responsive to receiving a completed data entry form from the provider device, that stores data from the data entry form into the database, third code, responsive to receiving the completed data entry form from the provider device, that notifies a healthcare provider communication device of errors, and fourth code that instructs said communication device to transmit a summary of said data to a receiving agency.
